Doggy Day Care Crofton

“Lucie was absolutely wonderful with my dog! The photos and updates she sent showed just how happy and comfortable he was—his big smiles said it all. It’s clear she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book with her again! Thank you so much!”

About: I have owned pets most of my life. I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and many other animals. I am also great with plants. I have been pet sitting outside of Rover for many years. I have a very sweet pit mix and do not discriminate against any breed! I understand the importance of trust and communication while allowing someone to care for your pet! I will always go above and beyond to give extra love to your furry friend, not just take care of basic needs. I keep a well stocked pet cabinet and bring supplies with me for sits, drop-ins, and walks. Anxiety, tummy issues, allergies, discomfort, first aid, grooming, enrichment- you name it, I'm prepared. I've handled several medical emergencies. I take the responsibility seriously. You can trust your family member will be properly cared for in any situation. Any concerns or changes in routine will be addressed with you immediately. *If interested in boarding please note that I do have a 66 pound Pit mix. He previously lived with another dog, a cat, and two toddlers. He is very friendly with absolutely zero aggression. He will not stand up for himself. I would be happy to do a meet and greet in my home or on neutral ground. If your pet is not compatible with large male dogs, please do not request this service. Alternatively, I would be happy to pet sit or stop in for longer visits. I work from home part time with very flexible hours. I can easily fit any needed pet care into my routine. I am up and available at most hours, early morning and late at night included. I do not board more than 2 pets at a time. Though I do not personally crate, I will if it's the routine of your pet and the crate is provided. My home is equipped with baby gates and large bedrooms so I am prepared to separate without your furry friend feeling too cooped up, should the need arise. I do not have a fenced backyard. Walks will be given a minimum of 3 times a day. 4-5 walks is my normal routine, though I am happy to follow your pets cues or their routine. My neighborhood is pet friendly with walking trails and lots of shaded areas. I have a deck with a large umbrella and dog beds, perfect if your pet likes to sunbathe as mine does!

About: As a homeschooling mom, I’m home most of the day, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I have a fenced yard and love spending time outdoors, giving dogs lots of fresh air and playtime. I am happy to stick to your pet’s schedule! As a photographer, I also love sending cute photo updates so you can see how much fun your pet is having while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so pets get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long. Dogs enjoy regular walks in a safe, sidewalk-filled neighborhood along with playtime and a comfortable, relaxed home environment.

“Marta is wonderful! Finn had so much fun at her house and yard. She made sure that he would be compatible with the other dogs that were there and she sent me updates and lots of pictures. Highly recommend!”

About: Now we have a baby in the house ✨ I work fully from home - your pup will have company all the time! ♥️ If you ask my clients, they’ll rave about the care I give their puppies! As a former responsible nanny, I’ve transitioned to pet sitting because I truly love spending time with dogs. I grew up taking care of my own dogs, and during my time as a nanny, I also provided dog walks and boarding. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, it’s been a lovely journey that has deepened my passion for pets. Dogs bring me so much joy, and I’ve also learned to love cats. While our beloved cat, Stinky, is no longer with us, he holds a special place in my heart. 🌈 ✨ I’m busy on Mondays, so I may not be the best fit if your pup needs constant company then. I’m available the rest of the week and would love to help!✨ When working from home, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to adapt to your dog’s needs. We’ll enjoy lovely walks around my house in a nature-filled area, have plenty of playtime, and I’ll ensure they’re fed on time with some treats if allowed! 🥰 Always following instructions of the pet parents and doing what is safe for them. I am very responsible, former nanny and pet sitter! I will keep them happy, safe and sound.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was a kid. Walking, feeding, bathing, and training have all been part of the routine for over 11 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pets time and again, and that trust is something I take seriously. Whether your dog needs a calm and structured walk, a bath, or just good company while you’re away, I bring the same patience and attentiveness every time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and I have a lot of flexibility throughout the week, so I can work around most schedules. Whether you need someone on short notice, over a weekend, or during the week, I’m generally available and happy to accommodate what works best for you and your dog. Your dog will be in a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I have pets of my own, so your dog will have friendly company and will be comfortable in an environment that’s already used to animals. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual temperament and make sure every pet in my care feels secure and at ease.

“Jasmine was so great with Willow! She took her to the dog park, was flexible with my schedule, and even washed Willow’s bedding when she happy peed on it. Will definitely use Jasmine in the future!”

“Maria is amazing! We are so grateful to have her to take care of our puppy while we are away. She stayed in close communication with us throughout our trip, sent us lots of updates, and made sure our puppy got lots of love. It's great to have the peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands with Maria. I highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to their well-being. I understand that each dog has unique needs and preferences, and I strive to create a personalized and comfortable experience for every furry friend in my care. With extensive knowledge about dog behavior and handling, I can ensure a safe and engaging environment during walks, playtime, and social interactions. Additionally, I am attentive to any medical or dietary requirements, providing meticulous care and timely administration of medications if needed. My reliable and responsible nature, coupled with excellent communication skills, allows me to maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, keeping them updated with regular photos and updates. Ultimately, my dedication, expertise, and love for dogs make me a standout choice for dog sitting, ensuring that every pup receives the utmost care, attention, and affection they deserve. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I understand the importance of consistency and reliability when it comes to looking after pets. On a daily basis, I allocate specific time slots for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the dogs under my care. This ensures that they receive regular meals, get ample exercise to maintain their physical and mental well-being, and have plenty of interactive and stimulating activities to keep them engaged. I also prioritize regular walks to provide them with fresh air and opportunities for socialization. Additionally, I integrate grooming and hygiene practices into their routine, such as brushing their coats, trimming nails, and cleaning their ears and teeth as required. I make sure to stay updated on any specific instructions or preferences from pet owners, such as dietary restrictions or medication schedules, and incorporate them into the daily care routine. Overall, pet care is not just a task for me; it's a dedicated commitment that I fulfill diligently and with utmost care and attention. When caring for pets in my home, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for them. I ensure that the area where they stay is clean, well-maintained, and free from any potential hazards. I provide them with a cozy bed, fresh water, and appropriate toys for playtime and mental stimulation. Regular exercise and walks are incorporated into their daily routine, and I make sure they receive a balanced diet according to their specific dietary needs. If there are any medications or special treatments required, I administer them on time and with proper care. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining a familiar and consistent environment for them. I follow the pet owner's instructions and routines closely to minimize any disruptions to the pet's daily life. I ensure that their feeding, exercise, and medication schedules are adhered to strictly. Additionally, I pay attention to their comfort and emotional well-being, providing them with ample attention, affection, and companionship. In both cases, I maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. I make it a point to be responsive to any specific requests or concerns they may have, ensuring that their pets receive the highest quality care and attention, whether in my home or theirs.

About: I've had dogs since I was 9 years old. Friends and family rely on me to walk and feed their dogs. I love playing and caring for dogs! I mostly work from home during the week so I am able to be fully present and attentive to those I am watching during that time. I stick to a schedule based on what their owner has told me what their needs are. I like to stick to their walking and feeding routine, as well as gaining their trust so they are comfortable in my home.

“Alison was amazing! She was so quick to respond! She has a lovely fenced in yard and her pup is so friendly. That made me happy knowing my fur baby also had another fur baby to play with all day. Alison sent me videos a pictures throughout the day which made me so happy. I will definitely be using her again to watch my fur baby!”

“Nick provided excellent care for Maverick while I had to attend an in-person work meeting for the day. He kept me updated throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and he sent the best pictures of Maverick enjoying himself. It was clear Maverick was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. I truly appreciate the attention and care Nick provided, especially with Maverick still being a puppy. I would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for reliable and caring puppy-watching services!”

“Ozzy had a great time with Jennifer!! She was so accommodating and sent pictures throughout the day.”

About: MOONWALKS ! Hey, my name is Elijah Moon, nice to meet you :) With a lifelong passion for dogs, I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and have worked professionally at Camp Bow Wow, where I handled and supervised up to 50 dogs at a time, as well as volunteering at local animal shelters. I provide reliable, loving care and intentionally limit daycare to a maximum of four dogs at a time, to ensure each dog receives plenty of attention and supervision. For safety and quality care, boarding is limited to one dog at a time, with an exception for two dogs from the same household. If you have any questions or want to see if we’re a good fit, send me a message anytime. My daily schedule runs from 8 AM to 4 PM and includes a balance of play, rest, and structure. Dogs enjoy two scheduled walks at 10 AM and 3 PM, with plenty of supervised playtime throughout the day. A rest/quiet period is from 1–2 PM to help dogs recharge, and mealtime can be accommodated around 12 PM if food is provided. I care for pets with a calm, structured approach tailored to each service. In my home, I have two separate gated areas that allow dogs to be kept safely apart if needed, ensuring comfort, reduced stress, and controlled interactions. The spaces are fully separated so dogs do not see each other, and there is plenty of room for rest and movement. I’m always happy to provide photos of these areas to owners for transparency and peace of mind. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific instructions. Mainly to keep pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. My goal is to provide safe, attentive, one-on-one care in every setting.

“Thank you, Kiki, for making Bella feel at home. For my somewhat anxious 9 year old, this was a wonderful treat! Looking forward to day care and boarding with you for our little gal!”

About: I’ve owned dogs of all sizes and cats my entire life! I’ve grown up in a big animal lover home so I love to occasionally foster, volunteering at shelters and pet sitting! I have decades of experience with animals - dogs, cats and reptiles! I’m comfortable teaching new commands, and grooming if requested! My cat and dog are both good with other dogs and cats so they will love the company! I currently work from home full time so expect lots of cuddles, walks throughout the day and trips to the parks on weekends! I’m currently working at home full time with a flexible schedule so I’m able to fit in feeding times, walks throughout the day and plenty of cuddles! I have a dog and cat of my own so a furbaby’s needs are already part of my everyday life! I have a shaded fenced yard and an entire home for your furbaby to explore! I have a very friendly dog and cat (both small) that love new friends and will keep your furbaby company with playtime! We will fit in several walks in a day in my very quiet and green neighborhood, plus so park time on the weekends if allowed! I have a very comfortable spacious crate if it is preferred for continued training and my own toys and blankets which I have cleaned regularly !

About: Richard has had many dogs his whole life and loves for them to be happy. Richard has always done well with animals and wants to provide comfort in a new environment. Richard also has prior experience helping other Rover providers from living with roomates so he is used to taking care of dogs of all types and sizes. Anny has started taking of our toy poodle Katsumi since March 2024 and grew up with a family cat. She has experience taking care of a variety of different pets since starting Rover. Anny is a very loving person and loves to play and take care of dogs. Anny is a stay at home wife who wants to spend her free time at home. She is always concerned to make sure everyone has enough water and is taken care of. We typically wake up early in the morning everyday and will feed the pets and let them go potty first thing. Richard goes to work early in the morning while Anny stays home to take care of the pets. Richard is usually back early in the afternoon and we will both be home to take care of the pets together as a team. We prefer pickup and drop off times to be in the afternoon after 3:30 pm if possible. We have a first floor space where the guest pets stay. There is also a play pen area full of blankets for dogs to lounge and play in if desired. The play pen and blankets are washed between each guest we receive. We try to make the play pen as fun as possible so feel free to bring toys. We can provide dog training pads as well. We are careful to make sure the dog will not run away outside and that the cat stays inside. We can accept or provide pet furniture such as dog beds, toys, bowls, food. Bringing your own food and treats is highly encouraged to maintain the same healthy diet. We want to make friends with your pets. Anything you need and we will do our best to help. We have a toy poodle that spends most of her time upstairs or in the kitchen. She is up-to-date with all vaccines. Because she is very small, she doesn't usually interact with the guest dogs unless we ensure they are compatable. If they are compatable, we are happy to let them play together while supervised.
